![]() ![]() How To Use OCTAVE VST Plugin For Making Beats in 2020Ĭheck out this FL Studio tutorial we collaborated with Jacob on for our Team Producergrind YouTube channel. OCTAVE really shines when used for making nostalgic CuBeatz style melodies as well as the dark synth heavy production style made famous by Mike Dean, Travis Scott, Kanye West, etc. Early users of OCTAVE have been using it in all genres of trap, hip-hop- R&B and even Country. What Type Beats Can You Make With Octave?Īs with any synth VST plugin, the possibilities are really limited only to your creativity. Check out this video below to take a deep dive into all of the presets and settings that come native with OCTAVE. Using these vintage sounds in your production can bring a nostalgic vibe to your tracks that no other synth VST can duplicate. In fact, Jacob had to travel all over the USA and Canada to track some of these rare synthesizers that can't even be bought anymore. Octave was created using world-famous vintage hardware synths that have been used to craft hits and classics since the 1970's. Click Here to Try Octave For Yourself! What Kind of Synth VST Presets Come With OCTAVE? If a luthier, even one with no explicit knowledge of or ability to measure formants, were to make a guitar that had formants at B and F in every octave I think they’d listen to it, they’d say “No no no, that’s all wrong”, and they’d modify it to sound better - by adjusting the formants to be less regular.The new synth VST plugin OCTAVE created by My BFF Jacob is a high quality synth VST inspired by the unique sound of Mike Dean, Travis Scott, Kanye West etc. OCTAVE is really a breath of simplistic "fresh air" in an era dominated by complex synth & sampler VSTs like Omnisphere which requires hours of searching through presets to find the best sounds. But normally these formants are not at any sort of regular intervals and certainly not at intervals that repeat in each octave. The formants add character to musical sounds. The idea is to create something akin to the fixed resonant frequencies, or formants, present in the human voice and in acoustic instruments. So no perception of a particular key is being imposed. Since they’re not repeating at octaves they’re not reinforcing the same notes in all octaves, and the notes being reinforced are spread across all major keys. However, the next frequencies correspond to A, G sharp, G, F sharp… There are no major keys with even just the first three of these, let alone all of them. These are present in both B major and F sharp major. On the other hand the Serge Resonant Equalizer’s second and third lowest frequencies (the lowest seems to be anomalous) correspond to about B and B flat (or A sharp). So if those two pitches are emphasized, it tends to impose a perception of C major. But there is only one major key that includes both the notes B natural and F natural, namely C major - everything else has either B flat or F sharp. ![]() So pitches near those two would tend to be emphasized while pitches in between (around D natural and A flat) would be de-emphasized. Moreover the higher pitches correspond to B natural and F natural in higher octaves since they’re multiples of half octaves. The two lowest frequencies it uses correspond roughly to the notes B natural and F natural, a half octave apart. If you consider the Moog 914 fixed filter bank it’s based not on octaves or third-octaves but half-octaves, the same issue. The input goes in parallel through all fourteen filters and the resulting outputs are mixed to form the module output, with a knob for each filter to attenuate its contribution to the mix. ![]() Both have a low pass filter and a high pass filter, and in between, twelve band pass filters. Usson’s FFB’s functionality and front panel design are based heavily on the Moog 914. This is a somewhat modified version of Yves Usson’s Fixed Filter Bank module in Kosmo format.
